1M Track/Autocross Tire Setup w/ 19" OEM Wheels
I've searched the 1M forums for hours on end for the past few days.. with no luck. The topic of ideal Tire/Wheel setups seems to be a never-ending debate among the 1M community here.
This is somewhat of a unique inquiry/objective, so let me clarify:
Objective: I know I'm really limiting myself by staying OEM, but I want to maintain the BMW 1M OEM look as much as possible - keeping the Style 359 19" wheel setup - while giving the car better grip when putting power on turns. I can entertain the idea of ordering an extra set of rear OEM wheels to replace the front, but I'm not sure about its fitting.
Current Setup:
(2) Front Wheels - 19x9" ET31 (25.4 LBS, 31mm offset) - BMW Part # 36-11-2-284-055
(2) Rear Wheels - 19x10" ET25 (26.6 LBS, 25mm offset) - BMW Pat # 36-11-2-284-060
on Michelin Pilot Super Sports: Front 245/35-19, Rear 265/35-19
What are your recommendations?:
Staggered vs. Squared? Tire Size Setup?
